Open up a savings account. Automatically put X amount of your paycheck aside each pay period. It does not have to be a lot. The trick for me is that I donât even see it and if I donât see it, itâs essentially not there.

Having a separate account that you canât easily take money out of and having a percentage of your paycheck auto-deposit into that is a good way to start saving.

it's hard, I know, but just take 10% out of your paycheck immediately when it hits your account and Zelle or transfer it to an account that isn't as easily accessible. Savings accounts are good too, but you'd be surprised how fast it grows out of sight out of mind

Open a high yield savings account - you get an, obvs, super high interest rate, which is a great incentive to put money in there. Either direct a percentage of your paycheck in there, or transfer money in there immediately after you get paid. Great place to house your emergency fund (3-6 months of expenses) because itâs easily accessible.
There are lots of books on saving for retirement- I recommend the simple path to wealth because itâs easy to understand, required very few action items, the author crunches the numbers while heâs explaining things, and you donât have to be someone obsessed with savings and personal finance to benefit from it, like me!

In Tarot, The Fool is the first card in the Major Arcana, which represents the life cycle. These cycles we are continuously going through in our lives, not just once. The final card of the Major Arcana is The World (which I have tattooed very large on my thigh), which signifies the completion of a cycle and natural ascension into the next. We are then thrust back into the Fool, with a bit more wisdom.
The Fool as an archetype is one of joy, curiosity, spontaneity, and trust. The Fool is pure of heart, knowing that the Universe has got their back. This innate trust allows The Fool to be playful, to take risks, and truly believe everything will work out. The more we go through life and experience loss, grief, heartache, trauma, the harder it becomes to embrace this energy. Iâve found that as healing goes on, just as itâs shown in tarot, we return to this natural state of being. We start off as The Fool when we are wee little babies, and if we are lucky can return there a few cycles at a time, with more wisdom gained each time. Â
The goal of The Fool is to have positive experiences, maybe for fun, maybe to grow. There is an acceptance with The Fool, a kind of âthis is what is, how can I make this work well for me?â Everything works out for The Fool because they donât know it canât. Anything we go through in life, we can use to grow. I personally believe we all could benefit embracing the archetypal energy of The Fool a bit more. The Fool doesnât stop to worry what other people will think! The Fool does not fret about what ifâs! The Fool is in the moment!

Humans have always danced. It is part of who we are, yet we have been conditioned to be self conscious, to think that we do not move our bodies good enough. Dancing is beyond judgement. Dancing is not a skill, it is our soul moving through our bodies, expressed in movement. Dancing is healing. Dancing is bodily autonomy. Dancing is FUN! Any feeling you are feeling can be moved through with dance yet even alone, you fear looking foolish. Kill the judge in your mind, shut the fuck up, and MOVE đ
